"The Rite" may have been technically groundbreaking, but it sounds TERRIBLE. We've seen plenty of artistic experimentation over the centuries leading to new artistic genres, but early experiments like these are almost always awful. It takes someone with skill in aesthetics to turn the new into the beautiful, and it's rarely the inventor who does this.

It works better if you think of it as a soundtrack/score to a movie. There's lots of stuff going on that you're missing by just listening to it without the visuals.

I dunno. I love those notes. They're really off the chain. Wild sound rampaging about :)
